An old song I added the lyrics on. With plenty of solos.
I changed some minor stuff and tacked on an extra minute. I added a third heavy verse with another solo. Here is the link for the song with better sounds on my YouTube channel with the changes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTErCdFQguU&feature=youtu.be
I got my violin out of the spider webs and did some riffs for it. It's not my usual stuff, it sounds less morbid. I'll try to go positive for a while. Here's what I did today. It's repetitive but I can stand it.
Added my own flare to it really. Some relatively melodic metal with some scale work on 7-Strings that are intune with the rest of the song. The transition however may need some work.

I'M BACK! It's been over a month since I wrote new material, so here is an epic orchestral song I wrote. I recently watched all the Lord of the Rings movies with 2 hours of extended scenes and I saw the Hobbit this weekend. While this sounds nothing like Lord of the rings music, I was inspired by the epicness of the whole story and decided to write an epic sounding song. *Disclaimer: (This is not a metal song although I did add some basic distortion in to add flavor)
This is some score for a story I've written (Red Sky), which is the plot for a novel.
The song I have just completed has been (up to this point), my most ambitious musical project undertaken EVER. The the length of this song spans over 18 and 1/2 minutes. The song is about humanity's struggle for survival. In the next 300 years, the Earth's planetary resources have been used up because of wasteful expenditure of resources due to humanity's greed and wasteful lifestyles. A major war over Earth's resources has been waged and many people have starved and died from accelerated unsustainable growth of humanity. The climate is now unfit for life, so the survivors left on Earth build a spacecraft to permanently house humans. With this spacecraft they will search the universe for a new place to call home. When they do find another planet similar to Earth, a lot of work needs to be done to establish humanity on this new planet and hopefully avoid the fate that Earth faced. The colonials will establishing permanent peace and sustainable life for all of humanity and the creatures on this new planet. Wars will be ancient history, and starvation will end. Humanity will be a foundation of hope in a seemingly abysmal universe. This project took me all week to write and proved difficult and tedious at times, but I am pleased with how everything turned out. (As a side note, the first track has different phrases representing the story of humanity. For example "saying goodbye" represents the survivors parting with Earth in search of a new planet. You can fill in the blanks for the rest.) I hope everyone enjoys the song!!!:)
There it is.
I named this project 'progress' because I wrote it because of a feeling that I'm only able to discribe with this word.
